The week of May 29, 2018 a twitter trend urging people to post their unpopular opinions sparked a Prince edition. Two of the unpopular opinion posts mention the song Poom Poom as being a ‘banger’ although some fans disagree and have called it his most annoying song. (see comments below)

Song Poom Poom
Artist: Prince
Album: Crystal Ball
Released: 1998

Poom Poom is the third track on the third disc of Prince’s 20th album Crystal Ball which was released in 1998. In 1998, Prince created virtual liner notes for the Crystal Ball collection. He says the song Poom Poom was only made for fun:

“Never intended 4 any album, just a funny track 2 make a female laugh –What yo name is?All sounds by Prince (symbol)” ~Prince

The slang Poom Poom or Pum Pum has many different connotations. In Jamaica, it can mean bum/butt or sex in general. The slang means different things to different people.
Most interpret the slang or use it to refer to female genitalia. Whatever the case Prince liked the term so much he created an entire song about it just to make a woman laugh.

The lyrics are straight comedy and poke fun of the things people say to get what they want:

“4:58 and I’m hard straightLicorice and goldenseal is all I ateIf you were here I wouldn’t masturbateWishing I was kin to your PoomPoom”

Princevault.com says the track was actually released and has a copyright date from 1995.

“The track was premiered in The New Power Generation Stores in London and Minneapolis on 7 June 1995 to celebrate Prince’s 37th birthday. The song was copyrighted at the Library of Congress on 25 August 1995.”
